In this time of globalization, climate change, and sustainability, it is increasingly important to create a sustainable home and mindful family life. Join partners Joanna Salidis and Galen Staengl as they invite you to align your actions with your values, enrich your family life, and deepen your personal spirituality. During your week at A.R.E. Camp, you will learn how to foster your family’s connection to nature through mindful practices, games, and other activities; how doing so is a spiritual practice that illuminates many universal concepts. Edgar Cayce said that if you want to know God, study nature.  We will explore how this is true, and how we can use our connection to nature to inspire and nurture us to care for each other and all life on Earth. Throughout the week we will highlight the many ways the Camp environment fosters connection and sustainability through its schedule, activities, and ideals as a model for things you can do at home.  We will also discuss ideas and practices from permaculture and the nature connection movement to provide practical inspiration to help your family align your deepest values with your lifestyle and actions.
